Book of the day..

I went for window shopping last weekend at 1 Borneo with my cuz & maya.. and found a new bookstore recently opened - Harris. Luckily I'm a Popular Bookstore member... Harris is also in Popular's family... So I get 10% discounts of any purchase. My itchy hands just cannot resist by not grabbing at least something.. THis is MUST HAVE thing ... a sewing book...!



This is a new book published in 2008 WOW!!! thats new! Its also cheap.. errr.. well.. this is the cheapest sewing book on the shelf - RM 47.90 if i'm not mistaken...


Why I like this book so much is because.. its not only focus on dressmaking.. it also featured the sewing machine technique & know-hows.. and of course.. my JANOME has these features as well... Isn't that great! All sorts of new & advanced creative technique as well..

And also my serging machine.. MyLock 744D... wow.. this is a good "bible"

All sorts of applique..

All sorts of fashion style.. yadda.. yadda.. yadda... How I wish I can tell you the whole story... Time is precious.. I'm hungry now.. tata!@

Sweet Yellow dress

Made this yellow dress last night for Sindut. Last minute work again.... Nothing much on the cutting.. As this is her choice of fabric & pattern..for just a simple dress with linings. It does look sweet after all.. even though no ribbons or anything to embelish it.. it sure is sweet to me..

Peachy flower girls

I made this simple flower-girl's dress for Sindut.. Her brother is getting married next week. Although a bit last minute .. Thank god I finished it on time before the Chinese New Year holiday. Hope she likes it..

A "Nyonya Jual Sayur" Hat

Hahahaha... I dunno wat to name this hat.. My hubby said "nyonya jual sayur" hat meaning a hat worn by an elderly Chinese lady who sells vegetables.
I'm supposed to make a hat for Maya, cos she must wear a hat whenever we go out. I guess she's used to it.. Tried to hunt for readymade hat.. but can't find any.. perhaps no other toddlers in KK wears a hat like Maya..

I dont have patterns on hats.. so i just imitate a picture of a hat from a magazine... It works alrite... BUT.. its tooo big for Maya.. It covers half her face..hehehe... I'll have to make another one that can fit her now.. I will keep this for next 6 months... she'll fit by then I hope.
